Damn Europeans...

[Carlos_E]

What is the deal with Europeans??? None of them lift?

I am by no means freak status, I'm not that big. When I was walking through the airport in Spain I had people staring and pointing at me.

When my friend and I walk around the city, we get the same thing. People staring.

Sunday night we went out to dinner and when we walked in people were staring again. We sat down and there was a table behind a pillar and the people actually got out of their chairs to look around the pillar at us. Half way through dinner one of the waitresses walked over and said to me "why are you like that?" I said like what. She said like this, then flexes doing a most muscular pose. I told her I compete bodybuilding. Then asked my friend if he competes, he said no. She said then why are you like that? She said the staff were talking in the back and they wondered why we would do this to ourselves. She was speaking as if being muscular is bad.

So whats the deal? Eruos don't lift? Being a 120 male is a good thing?

[BOUNCER]

Your talking about one country in all of Europe, right?.

[Rob]

they would go haywire seeing ronnie walk the streets lol

[stocky121]

not everyone in europe don't lift

[Carlos_E]

Your talking about one country in all of Europe, right?.

I'm generalizing. But from what I've seen in Italy and Spain and what I've heard about the rest of Europe they are all very thin.

[Carlos_E]

they would go haywire seeing ronnie walk the streets lol

That's my point.

[Carlos_E]

not everyone in europe don't lift

Is it just Spain and Italy?

[RuhlFreak55]

you should have told the waitress to ask those other people why they like being scrawny

[stocky121]

Is it just Spain and Italy?

maybe bro i don't see meny people like that

but having said that franco columbo was from italy


but there are a lot of people who train in the uk but where still a minority

[DamnYouMSN]

Or muscular.

[scriptfactory]

There are a lot of lifters in certain European countries, like Germany. Italy, Spain and a few other countries have hardly any lifters.

[DamnYouMSN]

you only went to madrid?

[Carlos_E]

you only went to madrid?

So far, yes. In the summer we're going to the coast.

[BOUNCER]

So far, yes. In the summer we're going to the coast.

Oh your in for an experience then!. Nothing like Spanish beaches in the summer.

[Smak]

lol i hear ya with the mullets. They're fukin everywhere in Europe. Especially when I went to Barcelona and Madrid. The English love them as well. They sport the mullet or the David Beckham hair doo. Than they wear tight jeans and collared shirts with the collar pulled up. They top it off with a pair of diesels. Gotta love Europe!!!

I hope Booz n Stocky aren't like that.


You're right though that most people I saw in spain particularly Madrid weren't very big. No fatties and alot of skinny, scrawny guys.

Now when I went to Barcelona it was a different story. I saw a shitload of juiceheads at the beach, clubs, bars...

IMO Barcelona is 10x better than Madrid with the beach, women, better overal city. Madrid is too hot in the summer, but I have to admit their way of partying until the wee hours is pretty hardcore!!!

Carlos, EVERYONE in Spain stares. It's not just you. I lived there for a summer in Madrid and in Palma de Mallorca. Everyone stares...and unlike in America, where if you stare back, the person usually looks away, not the Spainards. Just something you gotta get used to.

[Carlos_E]

Everything is done late. We sit down for dinner between 11pm-12am.

[DamnYouMSN]

[CAUSASIAN]

I heard people in Spain are racist. Any truth to that?

[Carlos_E]

[SnaX]

Should have told her it was genetic. That you don't lift, and you get it from your mother.

[Carlos_E]

My experience so far, no. But I go to Madrid. I don't know how it is in the country or other cities.

Very odd, I couldn't imagine that type of reaction here in the states. I guess our cultures fetish with image has warped my mind into something that no longer knows what good looking is. Or all those euros are just nutty.

[Liftnainez]

Carlos E..l its funny you mention that bro.. Im currently in Spain for a couple of months and realised how small people are here.. I am nowhere huge but when I work out there are not many people who are that big or lift alot.. at least compared to the states.. Are you traveling around Europe or are you in spain?

I only go to Madrid. I'm dating someone who lives there. My bf and I are the same height and he warned me that people think he is big and I'm 25 pounds bigger than him.
